The Kunkle Valve 6010GFE01AAM0150 is a high-capacity bronze safety relief valve designed for demanding ASME Section I steam applications. This model features a 1-1/4" MNPT inlet x 1-1/2" FNPT outlet configuration and is factory set at 150 PSI. Built with a "G" orifice (.554 sq. in.), it delivers a certified steam capacity of 4234 lb/hr, providing critical overpressure protection for steam boilers, generators, and pressure-reducing stations. This specific unit utilizes an EPR O-ring seat (Ethylene Propylene Rubber), ensuring superior leak-free performance and improved seating integrity across multiple cycles compared to metal-to-metal seats. The heavy-duty bronze casting and stainless steel spring support a maximum operating temperature of 406°F. For technicians, the wide hex on the valve nozzle provides ample wrench clearance for straightforward installation, while the dual control rings allow for precise blowdown adjustment and opening control. This part is a direct technical replacement for the 6010GFE01-AM0150 model.

Key Benefits:
  • ASME Section I Certified: Rigorously tested for steam boiler overpressure protection to meet National Board safety standards.
  • High-Integrity EPR Seat: Soft seat design provides exceptional sealing and reduces maintenance costs by preventing constant simmering.
  • Durable Construction: Features a corrosion-resistant bronze body and B21 Alloy 485 disc for long-term reliability in saturated steam service.
  • Ease of Service: Equipped with a plain lifting lever for manual testing and dual rings for field-adjustable blowdown accuracy.
  • Precision Orifice: The G orifice design ensures consistent discharge rates of 4234 pph for high-demand HVACR systems.
Common Questions:

Is this valve suitable for air or gas service?
Yes, while certified for ASME Section I steam, the Kunkle 6010 series is also compatible with air and non-hazardous gas applications, provided the 150 PSI set pressure and EPR material compatibility align with your system requirements.

What is the difference between the 6010GFE01AAM0150 and the 6010GFE01-AM0150?
There is no functional difference; they are the same Kunkle 6010 series safety valve. The longer alphanumeric sequence is the updated manufacturer part format used to denote specific trim and seat configurations.

Can the set pressure be adjusted in the field?
The valve is factory-set and sealed at 150 PSI. While the blowdown can be fine-tuned via the control rings, any change to the set pressure must be performed by an authorized VR-stamp repair facility to maintain ASME certification.
